A + I = M with Mr Patterson

This morning we had Mr Patterson come and see us and he taught us about goals in life like being a rugby player,artist or even travel the world and also the other side of things like  the money we might need for our goals in life.Like going college and thinking of our futures but we have to be sure to have a plan b cause we never know we might not achieve the first goal so we have a second one just in case.
           








"Be a giver not a taker" This Phrase he told us about it,about what it means it meant putting others before yourself,just like he did over the couple days.He told us a story about what he had done he had got a text saying your flight had been cancelled so the air nz had to put him and 199 more people in hotels for the night and as he looked back he saw a young couple with 3 kids under five so he allowed them to come in front of him and then the very first person in line said no they can come in front here and they were filled with happiness and everyone else started to think like that.







He also told us about a boy who helped a homeless man who had no marriage, no house and no job and everyday  that boy would give him food and money for atleast two weeks and after that the homeless man  walked him to school and told everyone how he had helped him and he got a gold certificate that are only given out once a year then a few days later the man who was homeless got a job and now lives in a rental home and is happy.









Before he had gone he had taught us about his formula  it goes like this A + I = M which means Aspiration +  Inspiration  = Motivation
as you might see it spells Aim as in Goal Aiming to do your besting and having a goal to set on our life's future it is actually very helpful the look on the  boys and girls faces looked interested like they were thinking about there futures already

Title	What it means to be a role model
Introduction	Do you know what it takes to become a good role model? I'll be writing about what a good role model sounds,looks and acts like
Information 1st idea	A good role model would encourage you everyday to do your best or tell you to always get up when life knocks you down. A  role model will help you stay positive when times get tough and they will believe in you no matter what. A Good role model will build your confidence up even up to the point where you're living life on the edge. Just some of the things you might hear from people who inspire you
Information 2nd idea	A good role model could look like anyone,Anyone who inspires you,Anyone who helps you through anything,Anyone who would help you up when you're down. But you can’t just look and sound like a role model you have to act like one a good role model would act like a loving,proud,respectful person who takes life as an opportunity to be happy and inspire other people to be the best they can be
Information 3rd idea	A good role model would look,sound and act  like your parents the people who brought you up with no one to go to when help was needed,the people who help,care for and love you,the people who kept a roof over your head throughout your whole life.The best role models anyone could have would probably be their parents If there's anyone who can compare to them is probably Jesus or the good lord ”Amen”
Conclusion	All these things are what it would take to be a good role model just like your parents or your teacher or your siblings. So are you a good role model?Do you know what it takes to become one? have a think because you might just be inspiring someone around you.

1st Day But Last Immersion Assembly of the year

Today's immersion assembly is the last one for me and the yr 8's it was kinda Lit and i like the new song mr burt,mrs nua,Mr j and mr wisemen sang and performed quite interesting,
 it was quite funny and pretty cool with the wairua song playing and everyone doing wairua i can't wait to see what this term has to offer its gonna be great i can tell watching all those funny acts and videos and the music changing it was truly "Musical Madness"

Team 1's Topic was emotions that you feel when music is on such as happiness,scared,rage all emotions you can feel while music is playing i wonder what they do with all these emotions maybe they could be filmed and we could take a look at what they have done

Team 2's  Topic was "in the jungle" The song from the lion king and the song little kids know today i think it was how music brought people together to have a good time and im not gonna lie it was amazing the singing the performing and i love Mrs Gastons Voice its so sweet with a melody








Team 3's topic was "Story telling through music" it was actually really funny and really cool how they put all the songs together and said them in a conversation and mr moran's expressions on his face really expressed the songs he was lip syncing Good luck to them








Team 4's topic was carpool karaoke and it was really really cool it was really interesting i can't wait 2 see what they come up with next
